Learn to claim and accept praise, and acknowledge it in a gracious way, but do accept it
The goal is to get noticed and acknowledged for who you are and what you do
The meek may inherit it but none among them will step up to claim it. I want you to step up and claim it. - Dr. Phil McGraw
Become “essential”
If you want to succeed in any situation, it is important to be needed and good to be relied upon.
Whatever situation you're in, you want to be perceived as essential. - Dr. Phil McGraw
Know your real currency
Don’t waste time working for what you don’t want.
The key is to not waste time or effort even on a short-term goal if that goal cannot yield what you really want and need. It's just simply inefficient. - Dr. Phil McGraw
